Project Update: NEW Stretch Goals Unlocked! Maps, Magic Items Cards & More...

Honestly...I step away from the laptop for a day and BOOOOM!

Congratulations on the unlocking even MORE stretch goals!

You've unlocked the following:
  • NEW Battle Map - Garrett Fellhook's House. I don't know about you, but this one sounds really of creepy. Then again, I suppose that's the idea lol
  • NEW Monster - Fungoid Elemental. I haven't looked into this one yet, but it sounds awesome and I don't doubt the team has something amazing in store. I bet he's a fun guy (I'll see myself out...).

Next up is the fabled Area Map! This map will be hand-painted and labelled by Moreno Paissan. It will include all the locations of interest referenced in the adventure. It looks stunning and it's a great visual aid for your players.

Every time we run one of these, I get super stoked when we unlock the Area Map because I just love seeing them come to life. For me, the labelled Area Map just ties everything together.

The best part is, we're almost there!!!

Tell your DM friends about this campaign and everything you're getting for just $1!

Who knows, we might even unlock a new monster and more!

Our foray into Backerkit has blown all expectations out of the water.

Thank you again for your incredible support :)

Cheers,
Paddy

P.S. You might be interested to know that Copperbend is located in the Midestra setting. You may have seen that setting feature on the Bergin's Book of Beasts campaign. If you missed it, check it out HERE.

Project Update: Smoke Test has gone out!

Project Update: Smoke Test & Surveys

We have some exciting news to share with you today. The Smoke Test has already been dispatched, and some of you will be receiving surveys shortly, while the rest can expect them tomorrow. Following that, your eagerly anticipated downloads will be on their way!

As always, your feedback is invaluable to us, and we can't wait to hear your thoughts on the Rotting Mines of Copperbend. Your insights help us shape and refine our creations, making them even better with each campaign.

But that's not all! In case you missed it, our latest campaign, "Mote of Madness," is in full swing, and it's positively brimming with horror! You can check it out HERE.

Mote of Madness


To sweeten the deal and celebrate Halloween in style, we're including material that can provide up to 10 hours of adventure, effectively turning it into a potential two-shot adventure! That's right, even MORE thrilling content for just $1.

Mote of Madness promises to take you on a journey beyond the veil of this world, whether you're ready or not. With two monsters instead of the usual one and two optional locations for extended gameplay, it's a chilling addition that you won't want to miss.

So, gear up for spine-tingling adventures, and don't forget to check out "Mote of Madness" if you haven't already. The horror awaits! 🎃💀👻

Cheers,
Paddy

Project Update: Surveys are in Review! Files Incoming :)

I hope you've October has been good so far!

It's raining like crazy here on the Emerald Isle so the seasons are definitely a changing.

Ahead of the launch of Mote of Madness tomorrow, I wanted to let you know that we've submitted surveys to Backerkit for review which usually takes 48 hours. Then we start the smoke test, which sends 10% of surveys over 24 hours to ensure nothing is broken. Then the remainder of the surveys send with the file following soon thereafter.

People have asked why we don't just send the PDF out in an email straight after the campaign ends.

It's a great question.

One challenge is that around 10% of pledge payments fail when a campaign ends, even when it's only $1. And Backerkit gives folks 2 weeks to fix any payment issues before sending us the funds (same as Kickstarter).

The main challenge, however, is version control.

Honestly, most of the Backerkit Pledge Manager is redundant for digital only campaigns, but keeping everything in one place helps us send updates if any changes or additions are made to the PDFs. We are considering moving file deployment to our website because it'll shave up to 5 days off how long you wait for these. AND it'll mean all your Penny Dragon files are up to date and stored in the same location.

But that'll take a good deal of work and October - December is our busiest time of year, so that's a project for 2024.

In the meantime, please keep an eye on your mailbox.

And if you haven't already, please consider following Mote of Madness.

It's another One Dollar One Shot, but in the spirit of continued experimentation, we're adding a little more spice (or should I say slice?) to the campaign.

I hope your Halloween plans are going well!

I'll post another update in a few days when surveys and file links go out.

Chat then.

Cheers,
Paddy
